I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD.... generally hate taco bell though. Sometimes I prefer tex-mex over mexican food but they are both the best. Living next to the US/MEXICO border most of it here is super spicy but tex mex from like San Antonio is a completely different animal and I love both.

It's funny how most of the non-latin people will come here saying they love Mexican food and talk about the most Americanized dishes like tacos, burritos, chimichangas(which is most likely US in origin), ect... I wish they'd just say they liked Mexican-American food and cut the bull. It's even worse when those people claim to like Chinese food.

Back to the food.

For four years I had a roommate, who had a girlfriend, who's grandmother(bear with me), made the best tamales I've ever had. She would bring 6 by every couple weeks. Those were a good four years.

I wish birria didn't take so damn long, but I guess that's why it's so damn awesome. I'd like to cook it but, ain't nobody got time for that.

I sometimes dream of having a Mexican grandma and a French grandma, that cook for me all the time. I'd be so obese.
